Apr. 14th, 2014 02:44 pmTo Build a Better Mousetrap CHEESE! SNAP! CRACK! and that’s how it goes the basic mechanic of the mousetrap for so very long and people still ask how to make it better tinkering in basements and garages with wood and plastic and steel it’s a question for the ages a dilemma for the masses a… a… you know… a conundrum how on earth can we catch the mouse? we’ve tried building houses of wood and stone but the mice keep finding ways in finding holes and nooks and hollow walls we’ve tried cats but sometimes they don’t work befriending rodents and ignoring their trespass we’ve tried poisoning their food and water but that lends to a dangerous game so close to our own supply and we’ve tried the trap the basic trap (cheese, snap, crack!) and it works alright, but so much more can clearly be done we keep trying to find the more we tinker in garages and basements fiddle with metal and plastic and wood design mechanisms that kill or capture things that flip and crunch and lie in wait we keep building fighting the good fight
